The solution would be like
this for this specific problem:
<span>
The force on m is:</span>
<span>
GMm / x^2 + Gm(2m) / L^2 = 2[Gm (2m) / L^2] ->
1
The force on 2m is:</span>
<span>
GM(2m) / (L - x)^2 + Gm(2m) / L^2 = 2[Gm (2m) / L^2]
-> 2
From (1), you’ll get M = 2mx^2 / L^2 and from
(2) you get M = m(L - x)^2 / L^2
Since the Ms are the same, then
2mx^2 / L^2 = m(L - x)^2 / L^2
2x^2 = (L - x)^2
xsqrt2 = L - x
x(1 + sqrt2) = L
x = L / (sqrt2 + 1) From here, we rationalize.
x = L(sqrt2 - 1) / (sqrt2 + 1)(sqrt2 - 1)
x = L(sqrt2 - 1) / (2 - 1)
x = L(sqrt2 - 1) </span>
= 0.414L
<span>Therefore, the third particle should be located the 0.414L x
axis so that the magnitude of the gravitational force on both particle 1 and
particle 2 doubles.</span>
Answer:
4.384 * 10^13
Explanation:
Given the expression :
[(6.67 * 10^-11) * (1.99 * 10^30)] ÷ [(1.74*10^3)*(1.74*10^3)]
Applying the laws of indices
[(6.67 * 1.99) *10^(-11 + 30)] ÷ [(1.74 * 1.74) * 10^3+3]
13.2733 * 10^19 ÷ 3.0276 * 10^6
(13.2733 / 3.0276) * 10^(19 - 6)
4.3840996 * 10^13
= 4.384 * 10^13
